There are a few threads on this unit already. Not exactly sure if anyone updated them or not. I will say a few people on Cummins forum that have this unit and like it. Just a heads up if you have siriusxm and want to keep it this head unit doesn't support siriusxm

Don't care about sat radio but I do like the idea of bluetooth, Nav. and it looks factory and plug and play, so they say. Would love to get some real world feed back.

Oh god lol. My experience installing these things .... run and hide. There is a reason why you get so much for so cheap.

I haven't seen any long term replies on these

Any advise for upgrading to Bluetooth and gps without spending $800-$1000 or more?

Your phone will always have better GPS and Uconnect modules aren't all that expensive. Well unless you have to get a sales code flashed as I'm not sure on the 13s and up but the 12s and down you had to have the sales code.

I have one, not installed yet. There are amazing reviews on these things!! I picked one up for 13+ trucks and I haven't even bought my new truck yet lol

I installed a super cheap touch screen unit in an old car of mine. It was alright. Not great, not bad. I think all these cheap ones are hit and miss.

Find a clearance Car Play radio. New models are coming out right now.

Your local Best Buys may have this open box & clearance for even cheaper.

Pair with the Maestro RR and CH3 harness. You will have way more features than that eBay radio. You also can use Carplay/Android Auto for your GPS that way you always have updated and functional maps.

I might go that route, if I do I'll post pics. Just wish I could find a better looking dash adapter.

If you have a 2013+ truck, Why not drop in an Ra2 head unit? It had Bluetooth and its Plug and play. Can always add more features of you want. Steering wheel audio, Mirror mic, steering wheel Vr/phone buttons, backup camera.

About $150

Or you could go with the full RA4 conversion.

I just got a pioneer avh-x5800 for $315 and it uses the Waze nav app from your phone. I think the cheaper unit (x4800) also supports that app. That double din goes for $270.

That's what I was looking for, thank you! S100 looks like a clean simple install, just not sure about quality.

Wow! Impressive video. I might pull the trigger on this. Just wish it was made by alpine, Kenwood or pioneer.
